Palaeocastor was a gigantic beaver In making dams, it was an overachiever It chewed down stout trees With consummate ease Turning today’s beavers into unbelievers.
I am an ichnologist, someone who studies the traces and trace fossils left by life: tracks, trails, burrows, and other indirect signs of behavior. Modern and ancient traces alike interest me, as these lend insights on how behavior has changed through time (or not).
